UPDATE: "Anthony Joshua’s world title fight with Kubrat Pulev could be delayed"

https://www.borehamwoodtimes.co.uk/sport/national/18312075.anthony-joshuas-world-title-fight-kubrat-pulev-delayed/:

"Promoter Eddie Hearn has admitted Anthony Joshua’s next world heavyweight title defence against Kubrat Pulev could be pushed back a month to July."

I think July is being optimistic.

A huge number of different events are going to get cancelled and competition for venue space when things die down is going to be intense.

That said, the boxing event is likely able to pay more than most other events, so it's still possible.

Gives Anthony Joshua an even better chance anyway, since Pulev will be another month older.

Damn... but at least they are warned long before about possibility of delay or cancelation. I’m sure they haven't event started preparation camp and just do regular trainings.

I wonder if there is a sport, event, organization, or anything that has not been impacted by COVID-19. Everything, simply everything is delayed, cancelled or closed...

This is going to be a demolition job that's for sure.

Look what Joshua did to Povetkin, who is arguably a better version of Pulev—knocked him out in devastating fashion.

I personally think that Pulev is far too slow and clunky to pose much of a threat to AJ. So it's going to be an early stoppage, probably a serious knockout in the 4th or 5th.

The odds aren't good enough for me to bother betting on it though, the event will probably get cancelled anyway due to the virus outbreak.

Not really, although he is old, but because he is old and he has paid a lot of matches, he has a lot of experience, it is not easy for him to run out of gas in 30 minutes, it will take more time. I still believe that Pulev can make something, a surprise that is different from his victory.

Pulev will fight AJ at 39 years old (almost 40) when many boxers start thinking about their retirement. Yea, probably Pulev would look fine and tireless, but in reality, his age couldn't cope with AJ's physical presence.

However, anything can happen in boxing, and especially this is IMO, the last chance Pulev would have a title fight. If he lost, he could say "bye-bye" to his dream forever. The betting odds also way better compared to Wilder.

Speaking of age and anything can happen in the gane of boxing, will need to face the reality and fact aspect about things in some occassion like this.
1) No boxer in the history could say he cant run out of gas.
2) Age can not be cheated cause it nature.
3) The experience Anthony got from klitschko is enough for him to beat Pulev
4) Pulev age range is in the stage of retiring and i believe he's after this fight for quick money before his retirement.

It's impossible to say that Pulev can win this match, but I'm sure this will be an exciting match for everyone, the only thing that is unfortunate is the odds are so different Roll Eyes

With a small hope, I still want Pulev to win despite his chances Cheesy

I would say it's not impossible, anything can happen here.

Maybe let's try to analyze and compare Joshua's fights being the heavy favorites.

1st fight against Ruiz, the odds were.

Joshua -2100
Ruiz +1125

Today's fight. https://www.oddsshark.com/boxing/joshua-pulev-odds-and-pick

Joshua -1400
Pulev +750

Look at the comparison, Ruiz even have a better odds compared to Pulev and he won the fight, so upset is possible in this fight too.

Though the majority here think Joshua will have a win, how many think it will not be straight forward? Pulev is a dangerous fighter, just look at his record.

Therefore, this may be your last match to end his career. And with this match, he will unleash everything he has Wink

Like this saying "with age comes wisdom", he is not an easy opponent

Boxing Records update;
Wins does not matter here for sure. Especially Anthony Joshua got the advantage in reach and height.
But Kubrat Pulev is much older with 8 years older.
This match is exciting, I'll go with Kubrat Pulev here with small bet only. They have both 1 loss, feels fair.

I'm in favor of Anthony Joshua because he is very relentless inside the ring. Reach and height advantage is not the factor but his skills in dominating his opponent really makes me enjoy watching him. He defeated Andy Ruiz Jr. although Anthony had a hard time fighting him. Don't say that body composition really can bring you to win because sometimes the smaller reach have a quicker movement and punches. In addition to that, Kubrat is much experienced than Anthony when it comes to durability inside the ring. Kubrat Pulev is very hard to knocked down because of his endurance in the fight. As you watched his last fight, he can stand in the ring until 12 rounds. But I believe that Anthony Joshua will defeat him by a unanimous decision, so I will bet on him.

This doesn't matter, being defeated is normal and nothing is wrong about that.

Aj is at it again fighting heavyweights older than him who have a decent record. Pulev only lost to Klitschko but he was knocked out by Wladimir so if we are talking about skills and talent here I don't think he is at least on the caliber of AJ especially if you looked at his opponent's record you will see that the only high profile boxer he fought is Klitschko and he got KOed by him. So really I am giving the edge on this match to AJ who is cherry picking his opponents again, I just hope this is another Andy Ruiz kind of fight for Pulev.

My sincere apologies mate for the late reply, I've been quoted many times that made me lost the track.

What you say is probably correct but do you think Joshua will win by a points decision, TKO or knock out? I think Pulev will make things very difficult for Joshua.

I think AJ will beat Pulev by KO at round 9, here is why:
- Pulev is old, and he will run out of gas in about 30 minutes;
- Pulev still can take beatings, pretty unlikely for early KO;
- AJ will play smart, won't rush it, and will eat Pulev slowly punch by punch.

I also believe Pulev will make things diffcult for AJ but the fight is must win fight as said by Hearn (AJ Manager) cause AJ camp want an undisputed fight to happen between AJ and winner of the Fury vs Wilder lll fight.

Meanwhile, Joshua himself dont predicted an early winning against him while Pulev himself said he's happy he's going to show the world how strong he's. Therefore, i will no to the part of him running out of gas

It would be funny of Pulev wins. Who would he face next? Fury? This would be a total missmatch and he’s got no chances. Wilder? Again no chances, old vs younger heavy puncher, this would even ends faster that Fury vs Pulev.

Who else is left in heavyweight division?
